Just In Time for Your
The LCLS Online Bookstore offers you the opportunity to think locally when
choosing to purchase a book, DVD or music CD for your personal library or as
a gift. A portion of the profits from the LCLS Online Bookstore sales
supports the Lee County Library System and The Southwest Florida Reading
Festival.
“We know
that many library users borrow books from the library AND purchase books for
themselves, their families and friends,” said Deb Czarnik, Lee County
Library System Manager for Technical Services.
“The Online Bookstore gives our users another option of library service when
they don’t want to wait on long hold lists, or they want a convenient place
to buy titles as gifts. It’s also a great option for book club members
who want to buy multiple copies of a title, and for community members who
want to support the library.”
The LCLS
Online Bookstore is backed by Baker & Taylor, a library materials
distributor that does not sell directly to the public. Hardcover books are
generally discounted by 16%; paperbacks, CDs and DVDs by 14%. Shipping
options vary and credit card transactions are protected by SSL encryption
technology to protect your personal information.
Do you need to buy a gift for your family or friends? Are you ready to
purchase a copy of your favorite book, movie or recording for your own
collection? Consider using your purchasing power locally and support
your library.
